About GHRI Ratings

X

Good Housekeeping Research Institute (GHRI) ratings are based on laboratory tests conducted by our scientists at the U.S.'s foremost consumer products evaluation laboratory, and incorporate consumer feedback. GHRI is situated on the 29th floor of the Hearst Tower in New York City and is staffed by chemists, engineers, nutritionists, textile specialists, culinary experts, and other scientists.

Using state-of-the-art equipment, GHRI experts test consumer products — from microwaves to mascaras — for their performance, safety, and, with the help of volunteer testers, ease of use.

Established in 1900, before there was a Federal Drug Administration or a Federal Trade Commission, GHRI has always been the most trusted source consumers can rely on to choose products that are safe and effective.

Pros

In our tests, the natural rubber boot exterior stayed dry after being exposed to water and also prevented leaking

They weigh less than a pound each and won't drag down little feet

Non-skid soles improve traction on wet surfaces

Cons

The interior of the boot was still wet 24 hours after we doused it with water

There is a back pull tab instead of pull-on handles, which could be an issue for smaller children who need extra help

Non-skid soles offer traction for wet surfaces (like rain-soaked yards). However, we found that if the inside of the boot got wet, it took more than a day to dry. In sizes Toddler 5-13 and Youth 1-2. < href="http://www.kidorable.com/" target="_blank">kidorable.com.
